CB Emmanuel Forbes a 30 visit

If the it was a bad team that drafted Joseph that could live through his poor play he probably would be thought of as a really good player by now. He ended up being too raw from how little he played in college so he doesn't seem to recognize routes being run. Tyson Campbell the CB jax took ahead that the Cowboys liked was bad as a rookie but played really well last season.
I didn't think he looked out of place but his lack of experience was pretty well documented and I can't believe they took him expecting him to just step in. If I remember right he jumped a rout and got beat for a touchdown and they didn't play him again. The funny thing is Diggs has been guilty of that on a couple occasoins.
 
I really want the Cowboys to take a guy at 26 that has the best potential to be an All-Pro. Forbes in my opinion is the best cover corner in the draft. The red flag is his weight. Risen said it best he is skin and bones but coverage and ball skills are elite.
 
166 pounds!!!! Wow - has a corner ever been that skinny
Mark McMillian was 154 and played for 8 years and had 23 picks.

Antoine Winfield was 5’9”, 181 and was an elite corner.

Jim Leonard was 5’8”, 185 and had a decent career but he played safety.

History says it doesn’t happen often if ever. Most of the guys this size are special teamers (Turpin, Brandon Banks, Trindon Holiday etc) or receivers.
 
Not overly concerned about the weight as long as he’s dedicated and good between the ears. He was 170 at his pro day and could easily get to 180 by week 1 with a good diet / training program.

Jalen Hyatt put in like 15 pounds after his freshman year to be able to be stronger in the SEC.
 
Oh it… you should study accounting and cap space. That would enlighten and help you guard yourself from overstated positions.
Lololol. Sounds like you need to study..thanks for your time young grasshopper. Bye now

I think Kevin Smith was around 5-11 175 coming out of Texas A&M and was listed at 180. Darrell Green was probably listed at 5-9 180 but could very well been less. He was tiny.

Darrell Green had thick thighs and legs like Emmitt. He was not a thin man. Short but not thin.
 
We WILL NOT pick Forbes in the first round if he's available.
 
I’d be pretty happy with Forbes. He’s a great cover corner. At 6’1, he can probably put on 10 pounds or so and not lose too much athleticism.
 
Forbes won’t be for every team. The talent has never been a question. The size will scare off some teams but we seem to be ok with it.
